I made it official at the BOE and school today. His last day will be Friday and then we go "live." I'm amazed at the peace I feel in my heart that this is so the right thing! Julie, I'll email you soon--thanks for the invitation.

I think I'm finally back at it though. <BR/><BR/>Have a great day!! :)Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08999300101632000706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686582774155973298.post-40264794592646865462008-02-04T21:05:00.000-06:002008-02-04T21:05:00.000-06:00Rachel, I ended up eating Apple Jacks and watching...Rachel, I ended up eating Apple Jacks and watching House on TV. Guess that school planning lost out, huh?<BR/><BR/>Thanks Julie and Elle for the tips for my friend. I can't imagine that mid-year switch but I know plenty have done it.<BR/><BR/>And I agree that chocolate makes a perfectly wonderful snack, anytime...but I had been eyeing those Apple Jacks all day!Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13893224927335285415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686582774155973298.post-69299513256312881012008-02-04T20:46:00.000-06:002008-02-04T20:46:00.000-06:00Here's a tip for your friend, Jennifer.

We pulled all three of our boys out right before Christmas last year, so we did some quick scrambling as well. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, I took the 3 R's approach for a main focus--reading, writing, arithmetic. The school let me take home the books/materials that our curriculum fee had paid at the beginning of the year, and then I visited the local school supply store to fill in any gaps. <BR/><BR/>The new one on one time was the most valuable thing for me to be able to assess their needs for any fine tuning focus. I talked to and listened carefully to my homeschooling friends' advice. <BR/><BR/>By the time our state homeschool convention came around, I had a great shopping list and plan. Fine tuning has continued, of course, but I do not regret the middle of year course change.<BR/><BR/>Godspeed!Lisa Hellierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247624724011594390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686582774155973298.post-62796225044303514062008-02-04T07:00:00.000-06:002008-02-04T07:00:00.000-06:00That was funny because about Kathy making a post o...That was funny because about Kathy making a post out of your question because I am trying (brain drain here or something!) to finish a post inspired by YOUR comment on my submission post. Personally, I happen to like THIS post that you've written here. It's funny, and more important, we can all relate to it! Cereal for a nightime snack? Are you on a diet or something? For nightime snacks only ice cream (or something chocolate) will do!Elspeth https://www.blogger.com/profile/17495546895657214080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686582774155973298.post-52106921689025240682008-02-04T04:53:00.000-06:002008-02-04T04:53:00.000-06:00Wow.

I was thinking something caramel-filled-chocolate-coated.<BR/><BR/>Or something.<BR/><BR/>If your friend wants to email me, she can get TONS of web pages with FREE material to finish her son's year. Just let me know.

Maybe you could video tape them?? I know that's probably hard, but maybe??? It's kind of like when you take your car into the shop because the engine is making an odd noise and when you get there, they're like "what noise?"<BR/><BR/>The rag quilt - I MUST try this! Thanks for the link! I'll be printing it out tonight. <BR/><BR/>What other things have you sewn? If you think you're a little behind on sewing, just talk to me about it, you'll feel MUCH better about your skills!<BR/><BR/>I don't have any ideas for your friend, but I'd love to hear what others have to say!! Have you visited "Welcome to my Brain?" She seems to be a homeschooling guru. I believe she started homeschooling her daughter mid-school-year? Good luck, Jennifer.<BR/><BR/>I hope you found something to eat and get organized for the week, just in time to get some great sleep tonight.<BR/><BR/>Nighty night.Huse Yo Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18004838935064378063noreply@blogger.com
